Trustmore
A case can certainly be made for TRUSTMORE on last summer's debut run and with a gelding operation, headgear and a switch to handicaps all potential sources of improvement, he looks very interesting with Oisin Murphy a very positive booking. Vanir will need every yard of this but she's open to improvement, with Noble Honour also interesting.

Much improved from debut when ½-length second of 14 to Saga Gaga in maiden at Gowran last month and strong at the finish upped to 1½m when going one place better at Fairyhouse 17 days ago. Drop back in trip not sure to suit but she retains plenty of potential in handicaps.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFairyhouse1m 4fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat1/12Gowran Park1m 1f 100yYieldingFlat2/14Curragh1m 2fGood (Good to Yielding in places)Flat8/15- 4(6)Noble HonourJ: Shane FoleyT: Mrs J.

Placed all 3 starts in maidens, producing just about best effort yet when second of 13 at Fairyhouse last month. Opening mark looks about right but she's not yet exposed.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFairyhouse1m 1f 190yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Flat2/13Roscommon1m 2f 63yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Flat3/13Gowran Park1mHeavy (Soft in places)Flat2/9- 5(5)TrustmoreJ: Oisin MurphyT: Stephen Thorne, Ireland7-56Age 37/27/24/1

150,000 gns purchase who finished mid-field in a warm 7f maiden here in August. Fitted with cheekpieces and unable to match that form since but better expected now handicapping in headgear post gelding operation, particularly with Oisin Murphy booked.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFairyhouse1m 1f 190yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Flat6/13Leopardstown1mGoodFlat5/15Curragh7fGoodFlat7/14- 3(4)YousaynothingatallJ: D.

Australia filly who tackled handicap company prior to getting off the mark in 10-runner 10.5f maiden in ready fashion at Cork in May. Gained valuable black type when third of 4 in a listed race a month later and she looks fairly treated here.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLeopardstown1m 4fSoftFlat3/4Cork1m 2f 120ySoft to HeavyFlat1/10Cork1m 4f 25yGood to Yielding (Yielding in places)Flat3/8Dundalk1m 2f 150yStandardFlat3/9Gowran Park1m 75yHeavyFlat4/11- 1(2)GenchevJ: C.

Responded well when seeing off 7 rivals in maiden at Navan (1¼m, good to soft) in May. Found out in a deep handicap at Royal Ascot a month ago and this a much more suitable assignment. Yard in form and cheekpieces back on.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosAscot1m 3f 211yGood to FirmFlat17/19Navan1m 2f 40yYieldingFlat1/8Navan1m 2f 40yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Flat2/18Tipperary1m 1fGood to YieldingFlat4/12Leopardstown1mYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Flat5/8- 6(3)Tanzanite DiamondJ: Adam CaffreyT: Adrian McGuinness, Ireland5834Age 328/122/125/1
